Beautiful wood. Much more challenging than 3/4 inch to install. I could not find a cleat or side nailer than did not shatter this 1/2 inch wood. I finally found a review recommending the use of a 1/2 -1/4 inch laminate stapler. This worked. I wish I was told this I would have just gone with the 3/4 inch.

This product question would be better answered by our Sales Department, they are more familiar with all of our flooring products and can better assist you with your questions.Please call our Sales Dept. @ (800) 476-0007 for pricing and availability. Thank you for your inquiry.

Q:

I want to install this flooring over ceramic tile...would that be possible?

If the ceramic is flat, level, well secured, and sealer and contaminate free then you can fully glue 5/16" flooring to it. Follow glue-down instructions - www.lumberliquidators.com/assets/images/installation/schon.pdf

Q:

someone told us we need to be careful what we use to clean our floor if it has a aluminum oxide finish. Is this true and if so what should I use?

No "special cleaning instructions" for aluminum oxide finish needed.We our Bellawood Floor Cleaner, or cleaners that are safe for water based urethane finishes. Never use any polish, wax, oil soaps or cleaners that add shine to the floor. Thank you for your inquiry.

Q:

I want to lay this floor on concrete in the basement and then put a pool table on it. My basement is mainly above ground. Should I lay any subfloor down and is 7/16 TOO thin for this area?? Will it buckle in the future?

On the low profile 5/16" the wear layer is 0.6mm plus 7 coats of Treffert or Klumpp (made in Germany) highly resistant polyurethane finish with aluminum oxide anti-scratch and a 55% gloss.

Q:

I'm so frustrated with my vinyl floor I want to replace it with something I can safely and without damage use in my kitchen and laundry room. I'm on a slab, and I need to be able to pull the fridge out to clean behind with out ripping, tearing, denting, etc. Also, my mother lives with me and uses a rollator to get around, would this floor bear weight?

Yes this should be able to handle the rollator walker but as far as the fridge being rolled out; that can damage any flooring. I would recommend using 6" x 4' strips of thin plywood (luan), masonite or wood paneling to roll the fridge onto and protect the flooring.Thank you for your inquiry.
